4K RESTORATION
"(It) is like no other Western ever made, and with it, Robert Altman earns his place as one of the best contemporary directors…Robert Altman has made a dozen films that can be called great in one way or another, but one of them is perfect, and that one is McCabe & Mrs. Miller.” – Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
“McCabe & Mrs. Miller is a beautiful pipe dream of a movie – a fleeting, almost diaphanous vision of what frontier life might have been.” Pauline Kael, The New Yorker, 1971
Robert Altman tweaks the Western genre. He does not leave the town of Presbyterian Church, moves the stock characters – tinhorn gambler, frontier madam – to centre stage, brings the townspeople along, and watches as American 19th century capitalism sets to work on their dreams. Star turns from Warren Beatty, Julie Christie and Vilmos Zsigmond, the cinematographer; Leonard Cohen songs wrap around the action; and “still Robert Altman’s best moment” (Dave Kehr, The Chicago Reader).
Introduced by James Vaughan at Ritz Cinemas and Eloise Ross at Lido Cinemas.
